Chapter 214: The First Peach Blossom Luck Bestowed

“Number 2, pay attention. The target is about to appear. I noticed some other factors approaching nearby. Be careful not to let someone steal your role and cause an accident.”

At the street corner, a non-mainstream young man with a cockscomb hairstyle heard Chen Xiyi’s words in his ear.

This was Ling Hu, who had changed his appearance. Hearing the words in his ear, he felt somewhat aggrieved.

He had thought it was some kind of terrifying criminal organization, but it turned out to be playing the part of a thug to harass a beauty. No, whether that thing was even a beauty was another matter entirely.

He had personally watched as Chen Xiyi accelerated the growth of an embryo into a curvy beauty with a cold, aloof appearance and then performed a series of extremely terrifying modifications on it.

Both of them were sent into the city area. He was told to harass the other at a specific time and place, and then let someone else play the hero saving the beauty.

To be honest, while he felt aggrieved, he was also truly afraid. If not for the fact that this whole thing was too absurd, it could definitely pass as a terrorist organization.

Earlier, after he recovered and even gained great power, he had considered cheating Chen Xiyi. But later, when he saw the experiments Chen Xiyi conducted on the War Tiger Squad and the accelerated growth of the beauty, and then Chen Xiyi calmly asked if he wanted one as an employee benefit, he thought that one should have integrity. If he said he would work for someone, then he should work for them.

Otherwise, who knew what the other party had planted inside his body.

“Understood, Boss. I will prepare to act immediately,” Ling Hu whispered in response to Chen Xiyi.

He did not know where Chen Xiyi was watching him from, but he knew the other must have means to monitor him.

“Good. The target has appeared. Move now,” Chen Xiyi said.

Then Ling Hu quickly walked forward and grabbed the curvy beauty ahead. He forced a lecherous expression onto his face.

If this were a normal beauty, he could have acted very convincingly. But the problem was, he had witnessed how this beauty grew from an embryo to an adult and then underwent various modification surgeries to become what she was now.

“Hey, beauty, have we met somewhere before? How about coming with me to have some fun?” Ling Hu’s tone carried a feeling of grim determination.

This made Beauty No. 1 roll her eyes, and even Chen Xiyi was speechless.

“Number 2, let’s be honest with ourselves. Is this harassment or going to battle? Can’t you use a normal tone? And why do I feel like your body is shaking!!!” Chen Xiyi could not help but complain.

The beauty also knew this guy had messed up. She immediately turned passive into active and shoved Ling Hu away.

“Little brother, is this your first time harassing someone? See that handsome guy over there? He’s my boyfriend.” Beauty No. 1 pointed at Qin Tian, who was about to step in, and said with a charming smile. Then she naturally walked over and linked arms with him, instantly exuding a pure yet seductive aura.

Qin Tian was also a bit confused. How did the situation reverse so suddenly? He hadn’t even made a move yet.

“Right, darling?” Beauty No. 1 said affectionately, making Qin Tian’s blood rush to his head.

“Of course,” Qin Tian said, as he wrapped his arm around Beauty No. 1’s waist and brushed past Ling Hu. Seeing Ling Hu trembling slightly, a trace of disdain appeared in his eyes.

Why was he shaking? Surely, it was out of fear.

Only after the two had gone far away did Ling Hu let out a sigh of relief.

“Number 2, I originally thought you could be promoted to Number 1 after this. But with your performance, next time you can only move down to Number 3,” Chen Xiyi said somewhat helplessly.

“Boss, I need some time to adjust. After all, regarding Number 1’s situation, I…” Ling Hu wanted to explain something.

“No more next times. If you can’t even do this basic job properly next time, then you’ll become Beauty Number 3,” Chen Xiyi’s warning followed.

This made Ling Hu shudder. Make him become Beauty Number 3?

“Yes, Boss. I guarantee there won’t be a next time.” He believed Chen Xiyi had such ability; after all, he had seen what happened to the War Tiger Squad.

“You are free to act for the next two days. Better not provoke Chu Ge. He is Beauty Number 2’s target. Beauty Number 2 will mature in two days. Remember to be on standby at all times,” Chen Xiyi’s voice came again.

“Understood, Boss.” Ling Hu did not know why Chen Xiyi was placing these beauties around these people, but he knew one thing: the other party definitely had ulterior motives.

“Boss, there’s something I want to ask of you. I want to go save my dad. Don’t worry, after we rescue him, my whole family will work for you. We definitely won’t let you suffer a loss. You probably need more than just me for this act you’re putting on.”

“I just beg you to help create a fake death for my dad. I’m not asking you to intervene directly.”

Ling Hu pleaded in a low voice.

Having experienced the fickleness of human nature and paralysis, among other things, he had come to understand a lot.

“I can prepare a fake death body for you. Come back and get it yourself. But you have to save him on your own. Clean up any loose ends yourself.”

Chen Xiyi thought for a moment and felt the other had a point. With only one actor, some scenes indeed lacked enough people. After all, they couldn’t always use methods like the hero saving the beauty; that would raise suspicions.

“Thank you, Boss.” Hearing this, Ling Hu felt a surge of joy and immediately spoke.

Then he naturally got into a car and headed towards the Shelter area.

…

“Around Chu Ge, there are already women with a cold, aloof style. His preference seems to be for busty women? Or mature women?”

Chen Xiyi pulled up the women around Chu Ge. They all had prominent figures and were of the mature type. Whether it was the female landlord, the white-collar worker, the female assassin, or the female CEO, they were all the same type.

“So, we need to avoid these existing identical roles and also find a legitimate way for her to move into his home.”

“Beauty Number 1 succeeded. With her pure yet seductive personality, plus being freshly ‘new,’ and with the body structure I designed, along with the seduction techniques extracted from memories of various seductive spirits and fairy beings in the Qi Refiner World, I guarantee Qin Tian will develop a taste for it.”

Beauty Number 1 was human but not entirely human. Chen Xiyi had made large-scale modifications to her body structure, making her as durable as a succubus.

These were things the Qi Refiners had already mastered.

In Chen Xiyi’s mind, he began making slight adjustments to Beauty Number 2’s script.

Her identity was tentatively set as the girl next door abandoned by a family that favored sons over daughters. Once Ling Hu brought his parents over and transformed them into Gu Martial Artists, they could proceed with the script.

But before that, Ling Hu’s family needed to rehearse.

He wasn’t worried about the Beauty series clone-modified humans. Through big data, he had integrated a large amount of high-level data from skilled seductresses. Whether it was a ‘green tea,’ a ‘white lotus,’ or a ‘good little sister,’ they could handle the roles, though adjusting them was quite troublesome.

To be honest, if these data sets were loaded onto ugly people, it would definitely be a case of ‘the ugly acting out.’ But if loaded onto those with curvy bodies and pretty faces, it would be considered charming or having personality.

The saying ‘values follow appearance’ is no joke.

“Based on his preferences, mature and busty types definitely need to be arranged. The persona of a capable, homely girl next door is one he hasn’t acquired yet. It seems the girl across from Chu Ge has this potential. We need to find a way to act first. If the other party gets ahead, it could be a bit troublesome.”

Chen Xiyi pulled up the soft, cute girl living across from Chu Ge. According to big data comparisons, the two had already made contact before, but it was only at the stage of curiosity, not yet substantial.

The reason was simple: Chu Ge had recently been busy crashing a wedding.

Whose wedding?

Of course, it was the little twelfth daughter of the Ximen Family, whom Ling Hu had met through a blind date.

Now that he had succeeded, he was settling her in. She wasn’t living with Chu Ge but was placed in the home of one of his harem members.

It must be said, that little twelfth was truly both filial and foolish enough.

For the sake of being with her lover, she sent her whole family into ruin and destroyed her own means of survival.

Everything she had came from the Ximen Family. Without the Ximen Family, how could she compete with those seductive vixens? Rely on her body?

There was no shortage of her alone. Once Chen Xiyi’s Beauty Number 2 moved in, she was guaranteed to lose miserably, without even the capital to fight back.

Being a harem-protagonist stallion is indeed very enjoyable. But being part of a stallion protagonist’s harem is pure torment.

Of course, infiltrating this type of protagonist’s harem is quite easy. Hadn’t he already infiltrated it?

“Huh, the Hidden World Clan has made its move. It seems Chu Ge can’t escape this after all. I’ll find time to visit the Hidden World Clan and see what skills they have that allow them to wield such power in Yanzhou, capable of toppling even the massive Ximen Family in a single day.”

“Maybe I can find something that interests me.”

Chen Xiyi looked at the data fed back from satellites, surveillance cameras, and other electronic devices, organized by the System. He noticed the movements of the Hidden World Clan.

The Hidden World Clan, though called ‘hidden,’ actually just occupied an entire mountain, with many guards patrolling, making it impossible for anyone to enter. It didn’t mean they were truly hiding in some Paradise Grotto, remotely controlling everything.

In fact, the Hidden World Clan had even stricter surveillance on themselves, with many cameras, which directly benefited Chen Xiyi.

Moreover, they were connected to the internet. These days, not having internet access would be quite frustrating.

The Hidden World Clan weren’t immortals detached from worldly affairs. They had accumulated wealth and power, so naturally, they possessed all kinds of modern equipment.

Chen Xiyi was also continuously upgrading his Innate Divine Ability, the System. With the internet and computers as precedents, Chen Xiyi had upgraded the System to version 11.8 in these past few days. He was now tackling local area networks, wanting to interface with electromagnetic waves, using mathematics and physics to achieve this unscientific method.

But progress was a bit slow. Interfacing with electromagnetism wasn’t easy.

As for local area networks, there was some progress. Through Primordial Spirit translation combined with the System, he could preliminarily capture devices on LANs and those physically disconnected from networks.

The difficulty was just a bit high and needed further upgrades. Once these two parts were resolved, the System would be considered upgraded to version 12.0.

The Primordial Soul Martial Dao talent also manifested in a virtual form during the Primordial Spirit translation process. In other words, against cyber weapons, Chen Xiyi could crush mobile phone signals with his bare hands and even project his Primordial Spirit to travel along network cables or phone signals to attack people.

He no longer feared keyboard warriors arguing and cursing with him online. If Chen Xiyi could out-curse them online, that would be the end of it. If he couldn’t, then don’t blame him for traveling through the internet to teach them what offline communication means.

“Most personnel have been withdrawn. Then I’ll make a trip. It seems the Hidden World Clan stores a lot of information not on computers but uses paper records. What a pity.”

Chen Xiyi had just cracked their LAN and physically disconnected devices. He found some things, but they were a bit limited.

Then, through the cameras, he found a secret vault containing many documents. He had no choice but to go there in person.
